JSngry Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Don't think it's anybody's "best" work or anything, but oh well. Quite enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Just in case there are also two separate rather recent Japanese reissues of the albums - agreed on Sangrey's summary, enjoyable stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) Just in case there are also two separate rather recent Japanese reissues of the albums - agreed on Sangrey's summary, enjoyable stuff! And the Japanese EMI cds sound much better than the two earlier Fresh Sounds cds. Edited September 4, 2013 by jazzbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 only had one of them, gave it away without even bothering to compare ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 I like these dates and I agree with Lon that the latest Japanese issues sound better than the old Fresh Sound CDs. Neither version is "audiophile", but the Fresh Sound versions sound muffled by comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Fwiw, I like this session too, The Fresh Sound issue suits me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmce Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I had one volume and passed it on. Nothing too exciting to these ears. But if its your thing, there's nothing there to dissuade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Friedman Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 One thing that makes these two CDs especially interesting is it offers an additional opportunity to hear Billy Root in a small group setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 just a teaser; Bill Triglia told me he was the Monday night pianist at Birdland for a while - and then played me a reel to reel he'd made with Sonny Rollins; wouldn't let me make a copy, and nobody knows where it is now.
